I can just hear everyone saying, “Sure, you CLAIM that cats will rule the world… but how can you be SURE?” This. [Prepare yourself, take some deep breaths, and… click](http://cuteoverload.com/2014/01/18/just-28-more-flavors-and-youve-got-a-baskin-robbins/) ---

I LOVE that the interwebs was created for cat pics & vids. =^ ^= 🙂 ---

I’ve seen that captioned as “When momma cats run low on toner” also. 🙂 ---

Oh, I agree. But there aren’t that many pics I’ve ever seen that have the power of reducing the viewer to incoherency like that one. (example) ITTY BITTY KITTY HEADS… EENTSY TEENSTY TAILS… INFINITESIMAL EARS… I CAN’T EVEN…TOO MUCH CONCENTRATED CUTENESS… SYSTEMS OVERLOAD. (incoherent squeaking) And then, when you least expect it, they move in. Hand over the catnip, and nobody gets hurt.😛 ---

> [@kath94](#): > > I LOVE that the interwebs was created for cat pics & vids. =^ ^= 🙂 No fucking joke! I can’t believe how many years I suffered from Cute Cat Picture Deprivation (CCPD) and didn’t even know it. Now when I feel the symptoms coming on, I can get relief immediately. ---

I was kind of thinking that too, about the deficiency of dog photos… but I have got to admit, puppies just do not do it for me in the way that kittens do. [Cute Overload](http://cuteoverload.com/) has a lot of puppies-- a few too many, I sometimes think-- but it’s a great place to find more unusual cute animals. The top 2 posts are otters right now. And I want to know more about the Institute for Advanced Ice Cream Studies. 🙂 ---

I wonder if those cougar cubs are still at the Portland zoo… I really should go there at some point. Anyway, there was a Cutest Kitty Moment Ever ™ a little while ago when Amethyst fell asleep on the keyboard. No photos were taken, unfortunately. BUT… just to convey the mood, here’s a piece my grandma used to play… [Kitten on the Keys.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBxRRUj1bcA) ---

Who has lots of time to sit at home sobbing into their ice cream bucket and uploading pictures of their house bound cat? Cat owners. Who doesn’t have time to upload pics of their dog because they’re out playing team frisbee with all their other dog owner friends while also toning their six pack abs? Dog owners. ---

So… how exactly does this explain all of the dog owners who DON’T have six pack abs? And who walk around with their shirts off-- OH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PUT THAT BACK ON. 😉 Here’s the secret… Cat owners (aka “co-conspirators”) AND our cats are devising a secret plan to take over the world. Masons, the Illuminati, and Jack Chick are all involved. Dogs will be used to deliver ice cream when it’s all over. 😛 ---
